I tend to like the journey more than the end point. I find myself not driving the car much and not having the motivation to fix the little things. The car will go on the market next week. I frequent a number of car forums, this one is near the top with knowledgable and helpful people and I thank you for the assistance you have provided me.

you have a unique "retro-mod". I hope you find a willing buyer who will enjoy it for what it is.
 
Thanks Tim, I understand the Z powered car won't be for everyone, but the car is what it is (and has been for 25 years) and it will find a new home and a happy owner.

Hey Rick,

I'm sure our virtual paths will continue to cross. I do have a 60's Porsche in mind, but sometimes cars find their owners, so I have an open mind. I learned early that you make (or lose less) money when buy and I should come out just fine. I will price it to sell and based on the interest in the car at shine and shows, I think someone will fall in love with the car.

nICE JOB!! :thumbsup: It has been a good show watching your project evolve. Thank you for including us. Best wishes on all your future projects. :cheers:
 
Priced to sell in my mind...good luck with your next find...
 
Ken,

To ME as it is, your ad is too cumbersom and laborious to
read through.

Personally, I started reading and after the first 5 lines,
I quit, and I am more about modified Austin Healeys than
most car people you will find. I run the Modified Austin
Healey Registry web site (www.modifiedhealeys.org)

You are not looking for an Austin Healey purist here.
You are looking for a Gear Head with an interest and some
money. I don't think that they will take the time to wade
through the minutia of your ad.

There is way, WAY, <span style="font-weight: bold">WAY</span> too much detail up front.
I'd start with 4-5 IMPORTANT bullets items up front,
for example, the car, the engine & driveline, the body &
paint, the drivability... Then if MUCH more detail
(about the radio for example) is important to you, put it
down below the bullets so that <span style="font-weight: bold">only</span> those who are
REALLY interested have to take the time to read it.

Just MY opinion, but you asked....

Ken, I LOVE your car and I'd be glad to put your car in
the "Cars For Sale" section of the Modified healeys web site.

I also suggest that you submit your ad to the magazines of the
TWO National Clubs - AHCA & AHCUSA.

Tim,

You are absolutely right. I wrote the ad for me, kind of the story of the car and not from a buyer's perspective looking for a cool toy. I adjusted the ad accordingly and I appreciate any exposure you can give the car.

Thank you,

Ken,

I think that your revised ad is MUCH more attractive and a MUCH easier read. It should attract a buyer.

I will get your ad and pictures up on a couple of AH web sites today.

PLEASE let me know when/if you sell the car so I can take the ads down.

Tim
